Stop...just stop. You forget that I coached at the HS level for almost 15 years then worked within the school outside of my coaching position for another two within that same school. Are you really making the comparison that printing money when you don't have any is the same as a federally funded school district? Hey, in order to keep our football and sports programs in general going, we had to not just negotiate how much our program would receive but we also had to raise funds to add to it...from the school who in turn received monies from the district. The comparison between the Federal government and a school district is an absurd comparison
What the heck are you talking about? Where did I say anything about printing money and a federally funded school district, nor did I compare the federal government or the US Department of the Treasury who prints money to a school district. Money is printed by the U.S. Treasury. It is absurd to compare entities which have nothing in common. BTW, California's K-12 schools received about $8 billion in federal funding, which is about 6% of the total funding for K-12 schools. The amount of funding varies by district.

How can anyone forget that you once coached at the high school level, you remind us of it frequently. Coaches do not need to be part of the teaching staff and are paid a stipend per sport or season. Were you also a teacher at the high school where you coached and thus became a member of the CTA which you would need to be since California is not a 'right to work' state. Were you the head coach or an assistant coach? How long ago did you do this anyway?
Aren't all K-12 football programs paid for through student-raised activity funds, parent/booster organization funds, community grants provided at the local, state and national levels and funding from the school district. What does this have to do with Government employees caring greatly that the bottom line absolutely affects their wages and benefits.
